Honestly, I like the “less is more” type of animation, cause it makes the moments that have more frames feel a lot more impactful.
Hello
That's true in certain situations. Also have an amazing day!
17:25 okay I can't even remember how many times I've done this in game, it's so lovely to see it animated
Your purpose is not complete yet
Same, except my Moon is a _bit_ of a cunt and she keeps "flying" away every time I try to do it.
fr, I do that to pebbles in saint’s campaign
We have gone from "i spent 3 months animating a fight scene" (that fight scene being from a 2 minute long animation) to "i spent 2 months on a 4 minute animation".
Nice.
Also, ✨canon compliance.✨
April 16th Edit: Why does this have over a hundred likes what-
Slugcat’s blank stare when taking in all that information
that is why he got microwaved after
The MoC says rat
Pebbles was salty when granting the mark to survivor.
wait it says rat?
@@kaiserreichtangle3120 Look at the thumbnail of the video.
NGL I saw the april fools day video and I just accepted that was the video you'd been working on for the last month. Curious to see what the final product will actually be 👁
Did you finish the video? It’s in there
@@dragone7897 This was commented two hours before the premiere lmao
@@inkycorvid3248 oooh forgot that was a thing, my bad. Well what did you think? I thought it was lovely!
Watching the video i actually thought the among us video was the said video until she mentioned the va improv
Northflowo's animations are always such a gift, cannot wait to see this!!
OH MY NON-RELIGIOUS GOD I LOVE THAT SCENE WITH SLIVER SITTING AND BEING OVERGROWN IN HER CAN I KNOW IT’S UNIORIGINAL BUT LITERAL CHILLS
Pebbles' wall has a sideways face on it. It is immaculate
I really liked the part where you said "It's cannon compliance time", and cannon complianced all over the place!
But srly now, I really liked this talk about the whole process! 😃👍
WAAAA this was such a cool behind-the-scenes video
I got chills while watching this. This animation generally felt more rainworld than the rainworld itself, and really showcases the beauty and pain of rainworld.
im not kidding when i say i legit started crying in the middle of the animation
as someone who's favorite campaign is also survivor's and having the base game impact me quite a lot, it's so wonderful to see how you portray not only the characters and the environment, but also the immaculate and unique atmosphere and feelings that i cannot even put into words. the "you" PMV of yours has been my absolute favorite and i think i've rewatched it hundreds of times by now, and this one, oh man... hits just the same. your art and animation direction is amazing. thank you for sharing it ^_^
In my opinion, "less is more" can be amazing as an animation style, but what really makes me love your style is the extraordinary ammount of frames you put into it. You always make it look so good, and even in this animation, where you're trying to remove frames, there is still some extremely smooth looking shots. Animate as much as you see fit, but know that you can do stuff that looks incredible even with excessive frames.
I'd really like to see what you could do trying to work with the contrary idea, a "what if I added as many frames as possible, but still made it watchable, and possible to follow" type of video, though I know that would have to be really short, since it would take an immense amount of time and possibly make you insane.
Either way, please keep making videos, I love your work.
Ngl… this is absurdly good.
“Always that same blank expression...” I do really like the scug style. I always find them being more ‘animal-like’ helps insinuates their personality through actions, rather than directly; and reinforces the theme that despite how intelligent they might be, they are trapped in their animal struggles, forever fated to face the horror that is the natural order of RW. At least until they finally pilgrimage to the worm pond.
Also, this reminds me that I need to get back to working on RW 3d art.
Immediate subscription, I ADORED the Moon animation. Sitting in the little can listening to Moon telling me about Sliver of Silver was literally the moment i got captured by Rain World.
I LOVE RAIN WORLD (I CANT WAIT FOR THIS VIDEO)
someone else that also has their favorite campaign be survivor :D, very pretty animation and I love the shot of survivor sleeping in the shelter
Survivor and Spearmaster are my favorite. I appreciate the feeling from survivor/monk's sort of fish out of water situations.
Very interesting hearing about your creative process, can relate a whole bit with some parts. The animation, shot composition and VA is great, you should be proud over yourselves and you definitely deserve that break.
The animations are just so great, not just from Rainworld!!!
I'm glad I watched this livestream!
The backgrounds are phenomenal and so is the animation:000 THIS IS SO GOOD ^^ I have never played Rainworld but I’m actually very excited now and really want to play it ❤
You should!
damn the whole creative process was fun to listen too as for the animation. While I didn't cry I did get a few tears in my eyes and some goosebumps from that. That was really heccin good!
Augh!!! North, My Heart!! Rain world has such beautiful themes, and Moon's reading of that pearl was a moment that left me reeling for the rest of the day. I have seen many people engage with what this game puts forward, but nobody ever responds to it quite like you. Thank you
THAT WAS AMAZING
Northflowo is the most goated rain world content creator
Gurl, I've spent like, half a year on a minute-long animatic / storyboard before, you're doing fine in comparison 👌
Jokes aside, looking forward to see the animation!
17:15 his ass is NOT listening !!
I adore seeing behind the scenes of these, please keep doing them for your larger scale projects, it's fascinating
As someone currently trying to learn animation, and as someone who wants to animate rain world projects, I'm loving hearing all your thoughts and behind the scenes stuff! Thank you so much for all the animations you've made, they're inspiring to see! :3
Also microwave scug
this animation is so beautiful tho!! i love the shot with sos overgrown in her can.. so pretty
is funny how i watch all the explication without undestand nothing because i too dumb, because i dont know nothing about animations and i not english
but still loved the animations and the explication process looks easy to undestand
I LOVE hearing your process and journey making this. Wonderful short. The animation is beautiful and Egguca does a great job as Moon.
Loved hearing about the creative process behind this masterpiece, and I'm glad you had fun with it! Always happy to see skilled folk like yourself enjoying the content they make, and learning more as it progresses. This turned out super great, fantastic work!
Ohhhhghh that bit with Moon saying how Sliver should be allowed to rest in peace and it cutting to Sliver’s broken puppet in the overgrown chamber is CHILLING- /pos
6:29 I hadn't noticed anything off about the "can" while I was watching, and I honestly think I _would_ have felt something was off, if it was based on an exactly perfect cube.
Imagine a dream, where something behind who you're talking to, is suddenly more clear than the person you were talking to.
fascinating full video!! i was utterly delighted to watch the Sliver of Straw animation and hearing about your process and seeing your work throughout is again just fascinating. love to see it
Holy shit your animations are just getting cooler and cooler every time! I'm in love with the backgrounds, but honestly, everything about this was insane. Thank you so much for making this
WOAH??? SHE WASNT KIDDING ABOUT THE BACKGROUNDS THIS IS GORGEOUS
Wow! Great job! Everything is out together so well and I love the way you designed sliver of straw’s puppet!
It's really cool to see this behind-the-scenes look how these amazing vids of yours are made, this was awesome!
Thank you for sharing this with us.
I absolutely love your astute level of detail and the sheer brilliance of your work, you are truly a gift to this fandom, North~✨❤🐌🐈
Okay, this is genuinely incredibly helpful. I always love hearing how others animate and their thought processes as they go along, but this is especially helpful for me, both in terms of learning techniques for animating and learning to just CHILL THE HELL OUT-- [cough] give myself the time and grace to not burn myself out of a project soon into (or even before) its creation process. This Behind-The-Scenes video is a nice reminder to not only relax and just try things, but also to enjoy myself while doing so.
Sincerely, thank you
I swear to god that I can feel some giggles on the "She was quite legendary among us
this was absolutely amazing north! i dont comment on videos very often but i just wanna say that you are one of my greatest inspirations and motivators- also my #1 reason for Rain World brainrot
Wow this is surprisingly very informative I should use some of those strategy into my work, thanks for the inspiration
As cognizant as I am about the miniscule details of animating I had neverI even thought of the "framing economy" and making too many new shots. I knew of reusing certain frames, shots, or doing as much as you can with the backgrounds, but i hadnt seen someone with the problem of making too many new ones.
This was really cool
But moon! What about your wife?
WHAT
Alright, ancients. The traits of this one will be:
•A blue, oceanic color
•Overknowledge over Among Us
•Homosexuality
The question is: Who IS Moon's wife?
Sliver of Straw :>

Terratech has a minimap and a literal world map(which is uncovered by exploring or at trade stations), both of these maps have markers for your structures, mission objectives, and also any AND ALL crates. The selected mission shows the objective marker and also has one of those location marker style pinpoints akin to those in navigation apps.
This was amazing! I loved watching this, it was really nice seeing all of the steps and processes you used to create the animation (which looks amazing btw) It’s nice learning about how animators make their work, and it inspires me to work harder to learn animation, too. Also, I think the scene with the cloud animation was BEAUTIFUL! Very nice
2 months is really impressive. And fading out of a project seems like a good idea too! Thanks for yet another amazing work Northflowo.
This was wonderful to see. Thanks for taking us through the process. As someone who certainly cannot animate it was eye opening to see what it takes to do so. I love the armless scug! Good luck on your next project.
Another fine addition to my rw creator collection
I love your animations Northflowo, they keep me and my group sane when we are having arguments about how the cycle functions
Hearing your breakdown was fascinating and made the final project feel a lot more personal to an onlooker like myself! Thank you for sharing!
Like a lot of artists, seems like you're your own harshest critic!
I'm not good enough to notice all the imperfections that you dislike so much, like the supposed inconsistencies, or the inbetween you mentioned at 7:49 - Anyone who isn't an artist, like myself, absolutely wouldn't be able to tell the difference. In fact, I could argue it actually makes the whole scene better overall to be economical, because it makes scenes with more fluid animation (i.e. the rain) have bigger impact. That's something even I was able to appreciate.
Regardless, it's super cool to see you've gone from 3 months = 2 minutes to 2 months = 4 minutes! the progress is awesome!!
p.s. good luck with your thesis!
I literally had no idea the April Fool's script was improvised, that is some pretty funny stuff right there.
you SHOULD be proud of this! It’s fantastic! I may try to adapt the once a day shot thing as I also currently have a big project. I have some really complex ones I can do on weekends and easier ones for schooldays. Anywho just AHEBYEHSUHSUHA I love moon so much (I have her plush I’ll show her in a second :)) and this is so perfect. I love that it was fun for you too!!!
I’m here but the video has not began… more waiting I guess
Hell yeah waiting (I'm going unsane)
I love going unsane
i love seeing the making of such masterpieces
This is amazing! I cant wait to see what more you create! And what you've learned and how it will affect your skills! I'd also love to see more iterator stuff done (like for example, the hunter remake mod's ending where hunter goes back to NSH)
Either way! You've earned both a comment and a like. I hope the algorithm treats this video well!
This is absolutely fantastic! I do agree that some of the shots probably should have lasted a little bit longer, though that is only because they are all such a joy to look at! You did an amazing job as always!!
I haven’t even finished the video, but I can already tell that this has so much effort put into it, and for that I thank you North, for putting a lot of effort into something that, realistically, wouldn’t be seeing any people outside of the rain world fandom. (Well there is my friend’s UA-cam, which has recently been suggesting rw vids to them, despite them never looking for anything that might result in this)
I’d also like to mention some of my head cannons right now. Firstly, I would like to clear a few things up tho, one: sliver did in fact “die,” which in the context of iterators is ascension. two: Moon did not die, she entered more of a comatose, where the puppet and other parts of the iterator is not currently functioning, but there is an almost imperceptible amount of breathing. three: the triple affirmative was not a fluke. four: echos are created when a being that obsessively works for ascension attempts to ascend, hence why arti becomes an echo, but not gourmand. four: my order of events would be sliver collapses, ancients build pebbles, global ascension, pebbles and suns start discussing things, pebbles starts doing the thing, etc.
So basically, the idea is that originally, saint was a regular scug, that befriended sliver, and eventually after learning of why she exists in the first place, he decides to go become an echo in the hopes of finding a way out for everyone. Saint, due to his wish, becomes an echo, but not the usual kind, as he is able to ascend others. Saint then returns to sliver, where she discovers of his new ability, and sends the ta, and requests that saint, after helping her, helps all others suffering from the cycle.
Sooooo cute , so good , this community is lucky to have such talented artists like you
:0 The Sliver of Straw is finished!!! Super excited for this xd
Being a RW artist as well, I've always found animation so incredibly intimidating. Especially with my constant exhaustion. I'm not sure I'll ever do hand-drawn frame-to-frame animation yet, but you're certainly an inspiration, regardless.
This animation was beautiful. And took me completely back to the first time I played the game. And captured quite beautifully why Big sis Moon is bestest. Bravo!
IT LOOKS SO GOOD!!!! I absolutely love all of your rain world animations, they always give an element of fluidity to the world that feels very appropriate for the tone of the game.
my opinion on the micro wave eepy box is that as long as you can see the humor of it and alough at it. its a blunder learned. plus humor helps a ton
This was very interesting to listen and watch!! Seeing the progress is always so fascinating! As someone that has been struggling to animate even one scene, this is just a masterpiece! Also the finished product is absolutely stunning! I did get jumpscared by the clip at 2:13 tho. Overall, this deserves more views. You get a cupcake. :)
This was absolutely beautiful
Has to be one of the best videos ive ever seen, not only following the process was enlighting and very much a moment to learn but was overall very much pleasant! I feel like I learned more ^^
funny thing that the moon's chamber was the first thing which i've done in blender. It was the time when i decided to make smth else but just models or some random props for personal purpose.
What a nice time it was.
Dude the amount of patience and dedication this must have taken is insane, I swear I felt my arthritis spreading just listening to you explain the whole process lmao.
The creative process is always interesting, at least to me anyway, best of luck on your thesis
The animation turned out so nice and beautiful! What you say is very interesting!❤
Thank you so much for posting so many videos about your process and improvement. I watch them all the time and they help me out so much. This video was amazing to watch and the animation was beautiful.
So cool! It's super impressive. I'll try to save my gushing for the actual upload lol
The animation is just great, and it's atmosphere is thrilling, lovbe your content. And i don't know but five pebbles music is just so unnerving
Damn not gona lie it looks crazy good and i love how mouch effort you put in to it.
6:58 you know, I am so glad that I’m not the only one struggling with this. It feels kind of nice that a person you look up to can also struggle with the same things that I do😅✨
woahhhh your compositing has definitely improved!! I would love to see maybe just a short video of showing how you do that with animations like these, especially with the kind animation style (me personally also using firealpaca).
Kudos! I enjoyed hearing about the process just as much as I enjoyed the finished product.
You should charge money for these animations! They are so awesome!
love all your animations so much, you're a big inspiration for me!
I really loved the commentary you added here! Seeing all the hard work that went into this is super inspiring!
Lore related animations with the iterators seem like they would be awesome, if you plan to make more I would definitely watch them! ❤ This animation was incredible and emotional, I just can’t-
i feel early for this still 17 hours later, i LOVE your rainworld animations, i hope you are able to keep posting rainworld videos, its one of my favorite games. cant even describe how much joy i get watching the process you go through making these animations and just watching the animations alone! thank you for the video :D
This is amazing
I’m quite impressed by what you’ve accomplished
Nice job
I have never played Rain World before, and while I do want to play it sooner rather than later, I don't really have time with school, especially since I started a lot of other games that I want to finish before starting another.
However, your art is really amazing and I just want to mention this. Cheers!
The only thing I could think when Moon told the scug to leave was. "If you can already hear the rain in that place then the thing's dead already, no making it back to a shelter now." ... My brain tends to ruin good moments like these in such a manner quite often.
BEAUTIFUL ANIMATION! enjoy your pesto :3
This is so amazing and powerful, gives me the same kind of feelings as when you meet moons or pebbles for the first time
My god. I don't know what to say. There are so many cool details, love the way you shown Triple Affirmative, overseers staring at SotS can, her overgrown puppet. The flashback about Sliverist faction, the mural. I can go on and on. Absolutely love it.
I really feel like iterators explaining pearls could be made into some interesting pieces. Like Spearmaster bringing Moon the CC Pearl with taboo breaking instructions, or 5P telling Arti that they are both stuck in The Cycle, while reading that Farm Arryas Pearl. Just a thought tho.
Northflowo, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
15:05 I can relate... for the past year or so I had gotten into modding cave story, starting out as a silly joke intended to foray into trying to mod that game but eventually developed into a project I was actually pretty happy to have made. But after posting it I felt kind of... empty. Every day till then I'd pretty much default to working on it any time I had a funny idea I wanted to see myself pull off in the game, or just had nothing better to do because I was bored of other passtimes like DRG or TF2. At that point I didn't really have much for those moods any more, I had no passion project to work on and feel like I was serving a meaningful purpose, even if the end product would probably be little more than a bit of enjoyment and humor for others, it was something I could feel proud making.
And I am still proud of it! But probably the best part is as a free game-mod-thing that's main focus is humorous endeavors I can always come back to it and keep adding things for minor updates I'll occasionally post as time goes on, so while it's not a major focus of mine any more it's not completely gone...
and it came out gorgeous
i did not know tumblr user excessive moisture was this popular on youtube. congrats anyways though! this must have taken a lot more effort than typical, and i applaud you for taking on that challenge.
You Art is truly amazing ❤️❤️✨ thank you for doing a video explaining your experience, I always find it so interesting and helpful
Damn, all of this is really cool! I also love how the moss overtaking Sliver's chamber is a little reminiscent of Saint's pelt, implying maybe just a little of what the Triple Affirmative could be...
Good luck on your thesis!
AUGH i love love LOVEEE this!!!!! the animation is so fluid!!!!
i dont think people understand how long animation takes, especially ones with this much detail. 2 months for 4 minutes is actually really fast from my pov XD
